The best euro rate on the high street today varies by provider and location, but several major retailers and banks publish live in-store rates that are often close to the online or “cash” rates. To get the most accurate, up-to- the-minute figure, check:
- Your local supermarkets' travel money counters (e.g., Waitrose, Sainsbury’s, Tesco) and their in-store rate boards or online pre-order pages. These often offer cash Euros at competitive rates, sometimes with a small markup for in-person service, but online pre-orders can lock in a better rate for in-store collection.
- National post offices or high-street branches of banks that offer travel money services, as they frequently list current cash-buy rates for Euros and may have occasional promotions or rate sales.
- Online comparison services for “high street” rates, which aggregate in-store prices from multiple providers and can indicate which shop in your area is offering the strongest rate today for cash Euros.
If you want, I can look up current published in-store euro rates for specific UK high-street locations (e.g., a particular city or chain store) and summarize which offers the best rate today.
